One before the other I place my feet,

trudging through the scorching sand.

The only weather is the unforgiving heat,

while I walk this mysterious ancient land.

Many bones litter the coarse dunes

and I wonder when I will join them.

The night sky is adorned by many moons

with sparkling stars, each similar to a gem.

I can almost feel the sharp gaze of a canid

when I stumble across a majestic sight.

Before me lies a place most sacred,

long since forgotten because of their might.

By its image I am now forever blinded

for it's not a sight meant for the human eye.

The infinitely dark entrance is guarded;

to Guardian of the Scales it is impossible to lie.

My knees slowly hit the cold hard ground

as a feather is placed opposite my heart.

The fine scales tip without making a sound

and I can feel a whisper of my Akh coming apart.

Wordlessly I give my thanks to Anubis

as he welcomes me to the desired Duat;

then I know I finally found my eternal peace

as my existence is approved by my god.
